Version: PDAbs for Palm OS 5
"Too many flaws and too many bugs"
Cons: When I first loaded it on my palm it was great, then I loaded it on my desktop and it would not run. After 2 weeks of talking with Tech Support, they said that another program was interfering with it. Turns out it was my internet filter. The response from them. Turn off my filter. The problem is that I cannot turn off my filter. Sounds trivial but I want to protect my family from what is on the internet and expect to buy a product that will work filter or not. After loading all palm products, including PDAbs, to my laptop to sync my palm. Well, the problem now is that the unlock code will not work on either. The refund policy is that if you are in the trial period and have paid then they can refund your money. But, if you pay money then you get an unlock code. So, I just paid $40 in stupid tax. Do not make the same mistake.

Hi dshannonrainwater -
As we told you while providing customer support for your issue, you don't need to turn off the internet filter - however you do need to set your filter so that PDAbs can function. This is similar to the Windows Firewall - some applications require the user to allow an exception.
I know that you said that the firewall is password protected - so once you login to the filter all you need to do is allow PDAbs to use the port it needs to connect to the HotSync manager and everything will work.
Please don't hesitate to contact us.
